Yeah you have time. I sent Bill an email asking him about a food tasting in February. I want to start thinking about my menus.

Maybe you should reschedule with FM, I am getting a ton for $2,500 (IF HE FINDS ME A PERCUSSIONIST!)
Have you tried to see if Howie Bongo is available for your date...He was booked for mine.. after hearing people rave about him I watched a demo and was hooked within a minute
Who is he? How did I see the demo???
ask FM if they work with him or if they have his number. He does free lance with different DJ companies. I saw a demo at HV, maybe Vinny will get him for you..You will NOT be dissappointed with him...he is amazing... good luck

Let us know how the tasting goes !!So Gulio told me to schedule a tasting a month before the wedding, I wonder why he told me to it so late ...
Should I do it sooner?

I think you can schedule at any time, I would just like to get it out of the way and know what I am dealing with.

Re: The first official Venetian Yacht Club aka VYC thread...
O.k... here are my results from my tasting last night...I just realized these pics will only help the girls who will be in the downstairs rooms...sorry girls who are upstairs
I will try to attach pics to this post....if it doesn't work I will put them in my album....First.... things that were updated...... marble columns....they look great...outside on the deck they did away with the white wooden flower boxes and replaced it with marle ones......looks beautiful, they even added a marble bench....nice touch! also I'm not sure who has or hasn't seen the new railing they put up (use to be plain white) now it is a magestic wrought iron.......makes such a difference...o.k food...Bill set a nice table for us downstairs...we felt so special...lol.. he brought out 3 entrees...filet, chix toscana, and sea bass..The filet was perfect...a must have....the toscana was delish...however....it had a bone..my concern is that my guests might shy away from it for that reason...when I expressed my concerns with bill, he advised the bone is just for presentation, if I had concerns they would just make it w/o the bone
Viola!!! problem solved...love love..love them over there...even after they have our money....they still keep giving...now....the sea bass.....it was fishy....and I'm a fish eater....so we will prob. do the shrimp scampi....if anyone tastes it please keep me posted....He also brought down some of the passed food.....sirloin on a skewer(yummmmy), crakes cakes, beef wellington, shrimp cosy, spinich quiche....everything was really terreifc....I even sampled my drink specials....dirty martini & a cosmo......perfect!!!
The only negative I would give is that the CH wasn't decorated enough. you can see in the picures the table has 3 plants on it....and thats really it.....FM me if you have any questions
